Atlantic City’s poker rooms have never been more democratic, less intimidating, or as big of a pickup scene as they are now—especially at low-limit games on weekend nights. The Borgata not surprisingly, has become the premium poker destination, with 85 tables and the most variety of games (Hold ‘Em, Omaha, Steven Card Stud) and blinds in A.C. It’s also the best place to flirt-and-play. More intimate, and less of a meat market, the 25-table room at the House of Blues has comfortable chairs, tableside food service, and a popular $100 no-limit tournament on Friday nights.
